Hi all,
I am very new to PPC's. I have a TOSHIBA e740. I understand that if I am online on my desktop and I have my PPC on the cradle, attached to the Desktop, I should be able to browse the web on my ppc. Could anybody help as to how I can do this? I am using at&t worldnet dsl services on my desktop - Detailed help would be greatly appreciated.

It should run fine straight off the mark but mine didnt and it turned out to be a problem with the network connection settings on both the PDA and the desktop PC.
If you are using ActiveSync(which i presume you are) check on the PDA (in settings - connection settings) as to whether it is using "Internet settings" in the dropdown box.
Also make sure this is so for the desktop version of ActiveSync
